Re: Financial tv shows

I like Suze Orman too, but I can never find when she is on and what network??

In the Boston area, she is on CNBC on Saturday nights two shows 8-9pm and 9-10pm. They are repeated again at 11-midnight and midnight-1am. Check the CNBC website for you local times.

Re: Financial tv shows

One of the programs I watch is ‘WEALTHTRACK’ hosted by Consuelo Mack. She is the only host of an investment program I’ve seen who is in touch with reality and admitted the stock market is down by 15% over the last five years, instead of shoveling happy talk driven primarily by brokerage houses trying to persuade people to purchase stocks so they can earn commissions, which is mostly what I’ve seen elsewhere.

Re: Financial tv shows

I didn't know that kind of show was on television. We don't own one (have a VHS player and a DVD player but no TV per se) so we can't watch. My DH has mentioned a radio show he listens to and has made suggestions from. I think it is Larry Burkett's show.

Re: Financial tv shows

When I was vacationing in Vancouver, I found a show called "Maxed Out" in which a financial planner would find someone in need of a financial makeover and talk turkey about her finances. The FP would delineate a strategy and the maxed out person would expose her feelings, fears, and hopes as she either attempted or avoided the strategy.

I wonder if there's such a show in the United States. Is it on a cable channel? Certainly with foreclosures and people getting over bankruptcies there would be enough content to keep a show going for 20 years...

Never heard of it, but it sounds interesting!

Re: Financial tv shows

Since personal financing and investing fascinates me to no end, I will basically try to watch and listen to any type of financially-related shows that I can get my hands on. The two that I've gotten a chance to listen to recently has been Suze Orman and Michelle Singletary.

Re: Financial tv shows

I watch CNBC with Suze Orman every Saturday night and listen to Dave Ramsey every eveing on my way home on the radio. There aren't and really good financial shows that interest me. I am looking for people who are in the same situation as me..in debt up to their eyeballs trying to make a way. Most shows are based around people who are successful looking for ways to invest extra funds

Re: Financial tv shows

Put me in the group that didn't even know there were any finacial programs on TV. Oh, some business oriented programs, but not personal finance type programs. I have heard a number of the radio people mentioned, but not all of them. As far as I know only "boohya" Jim Kramer is on regularly in my area. Don't care to listen to him. Too snarly.

Re: Financial tv shows

I'm a fan of Jack Cafferty and Andy Serwer so I watch "In The Money" Saturdays on CNN. Sat.'s show is rerun on Sunday.

Re: Financial tv shows

I watch Suze Orman sometimes. I caught one of the Oprah Debt Diet episodes. I do not care for Cramers show too much. I do listen to Dave Ramseys show most days. I travel for work so I listen to the streaming archive of that days show at the hotel. I do not agree with a lot of what he says, but it helps to keep me motivated. Otherwise I am likely to go out and get a loan for a new car.

Re: Financial tv shows

I have CNBC on as my background noise during the day.
I enjoy Suze when I can catch up with her.
I LOVE Clark Howard, but don't know where to catch him in my area. What a down to earth guy!
Deal or No Deal - tee hee! Theres a financial show - NOT!
